Vuma Hits 1 Million Homes

 Vuma, the Maziv-owned high-speed fibre-to-the-home operator, has officially surpassed the one million subscriber milestone—a number that reflects not just growth, but a profound shift in how South Africa connects.

What started as a grassroots project in the streets of Parkhurst has surged into a nationwide digital revolution.

Today, Vuma stands as a titan of transformation, having successfully bridged the digital divide and turned a bold vision into a reality for a million households.

This achievement is a resounding declaration: world-class connectivity is no longer a luxury—it is a fundamental right. It’s also a powerful testament to Vuma’s commitment to digital inclusion.

A significant driver of this growth has been Vuma Reach, which extends uncapped, unrestricted broadband into previously underserved communities.

More Than Just a Number

Reaching one million subscribers in just eight years, compared to ADSL’s 14-year climb to its peak—signals a new era of adoption. It’s a victory for digital equity: one million households now empowered to work, learn, stream, and thrive online.

This milestone fuels the work-from-home economy, supports township SMEs, and gives students across the country access to global knowledge—actively closing the gap between established suburbs and developing areas.

From Parkhurst to townships nationwide, Vuma’s journey is a blueprint for meaningful connectivity. With over two million homes passed and partnerships with more than 75 ISPs, the mission continues: to ensure that in South Africa, opportunity is never offline.
